Mike Brew - Acoustic Guitarist / Vocalist | Liverpool, North West England

Description

As an ‘upside down’ guitarist I had to develop a style that wouldn’t suit most guitarists. Seeing somebody notice is usually quite funny in that moment of confusion
With intricate rhythms with a percussive beat, smooth and powerfully sung melodies - I enjoy showcasing my ability and getting the audience
involved.

Biography

When I was 17 I was in a band performing original music playing in the city centre.
Soon after I had several years learning in a duo as a lead guitarist and vocalist. It was regular work and it was at a time when i was studying at social clubs came while I was studying at Music College.
The two years there gave me an understanding of music theory, programming, arranging and songwriting.
Paul McCartney, Billy Joel, Daryl Hall and Bill Withers are some of my favourite singer songwriters and have a influence on the way I project my voice singing.
Currently I am gigging as a solo gui ... tar singer and also in a duo, I’d be delighted to travel the world doing what I love each day.
